Deep ruby colour, nose of oak, vanilla and dark fruits. Nice integrated tannins and cherry/dark fruit, hint of lacquerice. Very nice wine, I should have let it breathe a bit more. We combined it with beef stew - very nice!

Weekly tasting group RWP #233; French or not French? (@ My place): In the bouquet earthy autumn flavors as well as some red and dark berries and tobacco. On the palate creamy chocolate and berry fruits. Beautiful acidity and round tannin. Impressions of cheese. Completely ready now.

Monthly tasting club LTC 2015-06; A mixed set of white and red wines. (@ My place): Beautiful and mature bouquet with earth, leather and tobacco as well as a bit rustic. On the palate mature with chocolate, but also still some dark berries and spiciness, good acidity and slightly sticky and drying tannin. Fully mature wine and completely ready, but no real hurry either.

Full bodied. A lot of ripe (little sweet) fruit juice, little good oak and a long aftertaste. A very nice wine.
